But the black one is more scarier.

Standard .22 dedicated suppressor wont fit ?? Seems odd

No, the barrel is inside the sleeve you see. that is not the barrel. it's like the colt m4 22. they use the same mags too. i forget the adapter thread size. but it's small.

 

[rcurtner]

was going to check out several cases from fastammo - then - boom - the shipping charge they added was 40% of the total! wow - forget it I will buy local then.

You might check out ammunitionstore.com. The last case I got shipping was 20 bucks.

Thanks, still puzzled, because my Umarex HK MP5 .22lr barrel needs no adapter.
My Rugged Mustang .22 can screws directly on

All mine are threaded for 1/2x28 other than the H&K and Colt. they truly do have a pencil barrel.

Just received a Mess 'O Mags for my Glock pistols.. In fear of yet more unConstitutional grabs by our leftist californicator government in Denver. These folks are getting tiresome!

Ordered

 

[USMC6094]

Since I has such a good experience with BKF, I ordered one of their Colt 733 uppers, and a mil-spec charging handle. And from Brownells, I ordered one of their 5.56 NATO bolt carrier groups, for said upper.

AR pistol number three is my HEAT clone.....

I got bored on a distillery tour in Kentucky with @KillerFord1977 and friends and I decided to see if Locked Loaded still had the new VP9A1 F for a crazy price. They did.

The gun is still made in Germany and imported by HK USA, but the hard case has been replaced by a fancy, schmancy cardboard box with heavy marketing wrap. The gun comes in a nylon folio, which I quite like. It's clear HK USA is shedding some its conservative German stoicism.

The VP9A1 F has a 4.5 inch barrel and shoots exactly as expected - which is astounding. You really notice the extra 1/2 of barrel (cue @Annihilator). The trigger has definitely improved, even when compared to the trigger jobs I have on my legacy VP9s. It has a really nice, sharp break and the usual shortish reset. The slide lock has supposedly been improved, but I still only get slide lock 50% of the time. The big difference on the new gun is the grip. The VP9A1 has eliminated the finger grooves and now has a flared magwell, which is where I'm having issues. Despite having 4 backstraps and 3 grip panels for either side I cannot get that made for me feel that I get with my legacy VP9s. Having a flat front to the grip and the magwell which flares at the bottom on either side makes the grip feel fat, whichever combination of backstops and side panels I use. I'll get used to it, but I'm a little disappointed to be honest. HK supposedly got rid of the finger grooves for the US market. Thankfully, they didn't completely cave and kept the ambi paddle mag release.

Comparison of VP9A1 F and legacy VP9 and contrast of the new grip and the old finger groove grip.

Typical VP9 Targets. Top and Bottom 50 rds each at 15 yards. Center 50 ads at 10 yds. Despite everything, it's a keeper.
